Description
The Open Cluster Chemical Analysis and Mapping (OCCAM) survey aims to produce a comprehensive, uniform, infrared-based data set forhundreds of open clusters, and constrain key Galactic dynamical and chemical parameters using the SDSS/APOGEE survey. We report on multi-element radial abundance gradients obtained from a sample of over 30 disk open clusters. The chemical abundances were derived automatically by the ASPCAP pipeline and these are part of the SDSS IV Data Release 13. The open cluster sample studied spans a significant range in age allowing exploration of the evolution of the Galactic abundance gradient.This work is supported by an NSF AAG grant AST-1311835.
